Can anyone tell me why

this garbage can is here?

We're finally getting rid

of our textbooks?

- We're not getting rid - of our books!

They're expensive...

and this one

is still in its shrink-wrap.

I'm waiting for the movie.

I wonder who they'll

cast as potassium.

Anyway...

- the garbage can is here - so we can see

How liquid expands

when it becomes a gas,

- through the process - of vaporization.

Stand back.

Not that far back!

[students grumbling]

I'm going to cap

this liquid nitrogen

and put it in the garbage can,

- causing the pressure - to build up,

Which will result in...

[students gasping]

[lid clatters]

[Derby snores]

[Adam] Really?

Even when there's an explosion?

- Echo, would you please - wake him up?

Not me!

Come on.

He's not going to bite.

Ow! Ow!

I got this.

[school bell mp3 plays]

Wow! This class just flew by!

Derby, you need

to sleep at night.

You don't see

anyone else sleeping.

[collectively snoring]

OK. New lesson.

[snoring]

Stop that!

We're going to do an experiment

- so you'll see how important - sleep is

- By coming in Saturday - and spending the night here.

Like a sleepover?

- More like - a "lack of sleep" over.

[chuckles smugly]

Anyway...

you'll come in at 8 p.m.

- By then, you'll have - been awake all day.

That's true! We don't have

science class on Saturdays!

Then we'll stay here

for 24 hours

and study how it affects us.

If you fall asleep,

you'll have to do a written

report on sleep deprivation.

But, if you stay awake,

it's an easy "A."

Sound good?

Yeah.

OK, back to today's lesson.

Gas expands by...

[school bell rings]

Wow! This class just flew by.

OK, see you all Saturday night.

[door shuts]

The sound quality on this baby

is amazing.

♪ Goodbye, summer

hello, fall ♪

- ♪ We've been trying - to get here ♪

♪ Since we both

were barely two feet tall ♪

♪ Who you calling "kid"? ♪

♪ Who you calling "kid"? ♪

♪ Who you calling "kid"? ♪

- ♪ You can call me - what you want ♪

♪ But I won't hear a word

where I am here ♪

♪ Who you calling "kid"? ♪

Hey, everyone.

Welcome. Come on in.

Nice P.J.s.

What's so funny?

What'd I miss?

Are we telling jokes?

Hey, everybody!

Nice pajamas, Slab.

Oh, these old things?

I've had 'em since I was a baby.

Wow. Your poor mother.

- Echo, is this - what you wear at night?

- Because - I'd always imagined

More of a silky little...

[Derby] I'm here!

Sleep deprivation

can cause things like...

headaches,

irritability, memory lapses,

muscle aches...

That's crazy.

Ow!

Stupid chair!

Ow!

My head!

What just happened?

Headache, irritability,

memory lapse, muscle aches.

Sadly, this is the best

you've ever done in my class.

[yawns]

See?

- Some people are starting - to get sleepy,

And we're only two hours

into this experiment.

Interestingly enough,

the record

for intentionally staying awake

is 264 hours,

documented in the

September, 2003 edition

- of the International - Journal of

Neurological...

[snoring]

Well, it looks like you're going

to have to do a written report.

But that doesn't mean

you can't stick around

for an incredible

learning opportun...

- I'm just going to - go use the bathroom.

- How do I know - you're not planning

- to take a nap in there?

- [gasps]

How dare you think

I would cheat!

Just for that,

- I'm going to go - use the bathroom.

- You know, I suspected - that you guys would

- Try to sneak - in a little sleep,

- So, I got someone to help - keep an eye on you.

Who? I don't see anyone.

You not call,

but I appear anyway!

Aah!

Dang!

That time you call!

- Aah! - Aah!

OK.

Well, I guess I don't need

to use the bathroom anymore.

Very good, class.

One of the ways to stay awake

is to stimulate the brain

through mental activities

like game-playing.

That's why I'm playing

"blind man's bluff."

Why are we still playing

"blind man's bluff?"

We're not.

We're playing

"blind men's bluff."

[circus music playing]

[snaps fingers]

Ooh!

Music will keep me awake!

[clicks radio on]

[Brahms' Lullaby swells]

There's a time and place

for Brahms,

and this is not it.

[switches stations]

[male host] You're listening

to hypnotism radio,

and you are getting sleepy.

Very sleepy.

I don't want to get

sleepy, very sleepy!

- [male guest] - Mitosis is the process

By which a eukaryotic cell

divides the chromosomes

in its nucleus...

Is there anything on the radio

that isn't painfully boring?

- [female host] This is - our series of lectures

From renowned

teenage scientist

Adam Young.

Oh, yeah!

I forgot I did this!

- Ooh! We're getting - to the part about organelles!

Turn it up!

[male host] Your eyes

are getting heavy.

Your thoughts

are getting light.

You know, a little

cool, fresh night air

will help us stay awake.

Huh. I didn't realize

it was a full moon tonight.

[shrieking]

What?

Slab's a werewolf!

No, I'm not.

I just haven't shaved

since this morning.

Derby,

could you get my back?

[razor scraping]

There. Done.

Ahh. Great.

Now rub in this botanical

after-shave lotion.

[panting]

Wow! This exercising is

really keeping me awake!

Not just you.

[scoffs]

Now I bet he'll go on and on

about how exercise increases

oxygen flow to the brain,

- lymphatic, - and nervous systems.

- Interestingly, - some studies suggest

- It protects against - cognitive decline

As well as...

I knew it!

It's not the science

that's boring...

It's you!

I'm so tired.

I need to find a way

to stay awake.

I've got it.

Dang!

You called?

Aah!

Thank you.

Dang!

You called?

Aah!

Thank you!

Stop that!

This is not as easy as it looks!

It's only 8 a.m.?

We still have...

12.

12 hours to go?

Go faster!

Not good enough.

[grunting]

[grunting wearily]

That's more like it.

What's all the ruckus?

- Mrs. Byrne, - what are you doing here?

It's 9:00!

Time for school!

Although, a couple of days

a week, no one shows up.

That's because

it's the weekend.

The what?

Oh, you youngsters

and your crazy slang.

[sniffing]

Do I smell bacon?

I know what this is:

an olfactory hallucination.

When you're tired,

- you can smell, see or hear - things that aren't there.

Oh, like that time

I thought I saw you in the tree

across from my bedroom window?

Right.

The mind does crazy things.

[sniffing]

I smell bacon, too.

[sniffing]

I smell botanical after-shave...

[sniffing]

and bacon!

[sniffing]

See? I told you

it was a hallucination...

just like the time

I wasn't in that tree.

Time for brunch!

[all] Aah!

Dang, you cooked for us

- because you knew - we'd be up all night,

Tired and hungry.

No. I do this every week.

But usually, it's just me

and Mrs. Byrne.

Have you ever heard

of the War of 1812?

She obsessed with that war.

This food looks awesome!

You all welcome to stay!

We have omelet bar...

[all] Ooh!

Smoothie bar...

[all] Ahh!

Salad bar!

[all] Nah!

I'd love some pancakes.

Get them yourself.

I not work here.

May I help you, sir?

I am so sorry!

[muffled] It's all right.

- One of the symptoms - of sleep deprivation

Is loss of muscle control.

It wasn't your fault.

[Echo gasps]

Oops!

All par for the course.

At least Slab missed you.

[chuckles awkwardly]

There we go.

[muffled]

It's all to be expected.

Thank you, Dang.

This was a lovely meal.

- We're really sorry - about the mess.

It OK.

I not have to clean on weekend.

Raccoon will eat

all food it find.

- [muffled] - Raccoon?

Vicious raccoon.

[low growling]

This be good time start running.

Yaa! Ow!

Too late.

- Ow, ow, ow! - Ow, ow, ow!

Sharp claws!

Sharp teeth!

[panting and gasping

[as raccoon trills]

Ow! Ohh! Agh!

- Don't you feel better - now that you're all cleaned up?

[Adam] Yep.

And I'm so glad

you had a spare pair of pajamas

to lend me.

[alarm buzzes]

See? I set one alarm clock

to go off every minute.

That way, I won't fall asleep.

Good idea, huh?

Now, which one is ringing?

Nope.

Not this one.

This isn't it.

Next time you have

a good idea, don't!

[second alarm rings]

Which one is going off now?

- Could've been one of the - ones I already checked.

Better start from the beginning.

[multiple alarms

[buzzing and ringing]

[alarm rings, stops]

[chalk scratching blackboard]

Derby, this is amazing!

- You're the first person - to ever solve

The Pollock octahedral

numbers conjecture!

The what? Nah.

The sound of chalk

keeps me awake.

I love you guys so much!

Echo doesn't actually

love you guys.

She's just experiencing

sleep deprivation-induced

euphoria.

This has nothing

to do with that!

I just really love you guys!

I hate you guys so much!

[fuming]

This is normal.

It's just another symptom:

irritation.

I hate you most of all,

Mr. Smarty-

See-Through-Pants!

How do you look so awake?

Cold temperatures can

help stave off exhaustion.

It's not that cold in here.

I may or may not have

an icemaker in my pants.

[ice cubes hitting glass]

Ahh.

A complete sleep cycle

takes 90 to 110 minutes,

on average.

[Adam] The first sleep cycles

each night contain relatively...

[Derby] Wow! I can't believe

how interesting this is.

Adam is a great teacher.

Wait a minute.

That doesn't sound right.

Hey, have I always had

this voice in my head?

[boy] Not just that one.

[Derby] Who are you?

[boy] It's Barry!

- [Derby] - Barry from kindergarten?

I thought you moved

- to a small town - in the south of France?

[Barry] Mais oui.

[Adam] Derby, shouldn't you

be paying attention?

[Derby] Adam!

- It's a relatively short - R.E.M. period...

[Derby] You're in my head, too?

Guess who's here...

Barry from kindergarten!

[Adam] Oh, hey, Barry.

What have you been up to?

[Barry] Oh, not much.

Splitting time between

- the south of France - and Derby's head.

I like to go in the off-season,

- when there aren't - so many people.

- [Adam] - Yeah, the south of France

Can get pretty crowded.

[Barry] I meant Derby's head.

Well, we've seen

all the symptoms

of sleep deprivation,

except for hallucinations.

Slab! You can't just

take Derby's money!

Derby's money?

I got these $200

for passing "go."

Thank you.

You're quite welcome, young sir.

Step aside.

It's my turn again.

1, 3.

1.

1, 2, 3.

It looks like Slab's

hallucinating.

I'm afraid so, old chap.

But I have worse news.

You have to go directly to jail.

What?!

All right, move it along,

a lousy thimble!

Come on! Hurry up!

Hey, I have an alibi!

I was with the shoe!

Move it along!

[timer beeps]

Ohh.

Hey, everyone, it's 8:00.

- You all get As - on the assignment.

[all] Yay.

I'm just glad I got through

the whole experiment

without hallucinating.

Congratulations.

That's quite an accomplishment.

Thank you!

Listen... I know I'm a raccoon

and you're a human being.

But I was wondering

if you'd care

to join me in the dumpster

for a little garbage.

- Yeah, I could go - for an apple core,

Maybe a nice fish head.

Heh. Great!

Say, if my mom drops by,

tell her you're a raccoon.
